Not many people know about the struggle I had to face a few years ago when Alex was only 5 at the time and I was still married to his dad. The time was rough since my ex was working offshore and I was basically the only parent at home. One day Alex tells me I was going to have sex with his dad when he got home and I was going to get pregnant and it was going to be a girl. Being the type of person I was that was quick to respond, I actually took my time to answer Alex. I didn't get mad or upset but I took my time to answer. I told him if I got pregnant then he wouldn't be the baby any more. So he tells me I couldn't have sex any more. I told him that he couldn't watch Family guy any more.
A couple of months later I was rushed to the hospital in the worse pain ever. Once I arrived at the hospital the first thing the triage nurse did was give me a pregnancy test. I knew there was no way I could have been pregnant but I was given one any ways. The test came back positive. I started crying immediately. I was then taken to ultrasound where it was determined that I was 6 almost 7 weeks pregnant and I was bleeding heavily on the inside. Apparently I was pregnant in my right tubes and it had exploded causing me horrible pain. I was forced to have emergency surgery right then and there.
I never got to know the sex of the baby that I was pregnant with. Alex still insists that it was a girl. A week after losing the baby he (Alex) told me that she came and told him bye. I became depressed shortly afterwards. I never received the care that I needed when losing a child. To this day I rarely talk about it. That child would have been about 8 now if she would have survived.
I was told by the doctor that I can still get pregnant if I wanted to.
